There's a new hashtag popular with the Texas A&M football program. While Aggies head coach Kevin Sumlinsays he doesn't use it, the team's fans and students, websites that report on the program, and the university's official football twitter feed do.

Much like Mississippi State sought to present itself as the flagship university in its own state three years ago with its "Welcome to our State" billboards, Texas A&M is looking to capitalize on its successful move to the SEC by claiming superiority in Texas.

It's a message that's clearly aimed at prospects. And with the rival Longhorns having posted only one season of more than eight wins in the last four years and the Aggies still riding the wave of Manziel-mania in College Station along with a 20-6 record since joining the SEC, the message is getting through.

Of the top 10 2015 prospects in Texas according to the 247Sports Composite, Texas A&M has commitments from three of them -- defensive tackle Daylon Mack, receiver Damarkus Lodge and quarterback Kyler Murray. Texas Tech has one. Alabama, and LSU have one each. Texas has none.

Texas A&M, which is also in the middle of a $450 million redevelopment project at Kyle Field, has a 2015 class that is rated No. 2 in the nation right now by 247Sports, trailing only Alabama.

"We're just in a different time right now," Sumlin told the Dallas Morning News. "There are a lot of young players who understand where we're headed, and because of that they've been able to come to our campus and see what's going on from a construction standpoint, and a lot of standpoints."
